        I suppose in a way, I'm familar with Debian, and I have absolutely no 
hostility towards it, considering I've used Knoppix quite a bit.
        However, I guess I can say after my fiddling around with FreeBSD, I'm 
more familiar with it.   I've been a dedicated SuSE user, but I'm just a 
little nervous about it since Novell took it over.  SuSE has officially 
stopped supporting my 7.3, you can tell when you go for patches on their 
website, and the patch page loads up so quickly because now there's 
nothing there!   ---Jim
